The Knicks really look good. Esepcially on the defensive end. Even Melo is bout there defending. Good win over SA. Amare being injured has done wonders for this team. He and Melo do not fit at all and I wouldn't be surprised if NY tries to trade him.

I have doubts Melo will keep up his effort on D throughout the season. How big of a hit does NY take if they to trade Amare, how much do they give up on the dollar? His contract and his play are going to be pretty hard to overcome in a trade.

I actually don't think Melo will keep it up if he continues playing the 4, defensively guarding guys bigger than him in the post is slowly taking it's toll you can tell these last 2 games him guarding Big Baby and Dejuan Blair he looked sluggish on the other end. I know everyone loves him at the 4 because he can dominate PF's offensively but I think there's a reason he said he prefers to play the 3 he prob doesn't have to waste all his strength.

A lot of ppl in NY are getting real happy about the Knicks but there points in the paint is really low and so is their rebounding, when Amare comes back I know he'll help out with the scoring down low but rebounding is still gonna be an issue since he's not a good rebounder for his size or atleast hasn't been so far.
